Ethnobotany is the study of plants used by specific cultures for various reasons. Ethnobotany is considered a new, yet vast science drawing upon the studies of ; Botany, Anthropology, Phytochemistry, Sociology, Medicine as well as Agriculture. The study of the ethnic uses of plant species is very important to modern medicine, agriculture and even the manufacturing industrial sectors of society. All of society is dependent upon plants and the products they produce. Ethnobotany often times evokes an image of the very far away, exotic tropics and Indiana Jones type researchers discovering new plants which have never been seen. In fact Ethnobotany can be as simple as the study of “Cotton in the USA”, or “the History of the Tomato”.
Ethnobotany is very important because it traces the development of humanity, even the most ancient of civilizations relied upon agriculture and the domestication of certain forage, medical, fiber, culinary and plants used for dyes. In our modern world we use less then 100 species for food, yet there are potentially thousands of plants which have yet to be seen in our local markets, and many of these species are more nutritious and flavorful then the ones purchases, yet every other year a new species shows up, a “new exotic fruit”.
Ethnobotany also traces the development of modern Medicine and Herbalism, the Paper Industry, The Chemical Industry, Rubber Industry and as mentioned above the Food Industry.
Every year new species are being discovered or are being reconsidered for modern applications in all the above Industries and Sciences. It has now become a concern of the modern world to preserve and gather all information on the utility of these plant species. And this research is not beyond the reach of the common person, it is just often times over looked, for instance; Do you know the herbal remedies that say your grandmother or great grandmother used to for illnesses? Do you know how they harvested, dyed and made fabric from simple cotton or flax? If not then you can see why this science is most important.
